Aloo methi (Potato with fenugreek leaves)
Had to put that first harvest to use, so I decided to make aloo methi. I love the bitterness of the methi leaves paired with the crispness of sauteed potatoes. At home, whenever mom made aloo methi, we would eat it for lunch/dinner and then the following day snack on the leftovers with matthi (crisp indian snack bread).
I like to keep the flavors of aloo methi simple and I typically follow the same steps that I saw my mom make with. For posting here though, I decided to go look for a recipe that's similar (since I am lazy to write measurements and most people prefer having some proportions to cook with). This one came pretty darn close.

Sometimes I add a bit of garlic - its totally skippable. And if I sprinkle the leaves with salt beforehand to remove the bitterness, I also add some turmeric to it (just a sprinkling, about 1/4 teaspoon). Enjoy!
